Second Dialogue on REDD Finance Mechanism: Built on the outcomes of the first dialogue,
TFD continued the discussion on REDD finance in Montreux. Through a facilitated plenary
and working group based process, the Montreux Dialogue aimed to apprehend the development on
REDD financing on the Climate Change negotiation front, to integrate new developments into the
discussion, to reinforce some of the points of consensus and to begin to bridge some of the
points of disagreement that arose from the first TFD meeting in New York City.

The dialogue is co-hosted by Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO), supported by
Intercooperation.

First Dialogue on REDD Finance Mechanisms: TFD is convening a serious of
multi-stakeholder dialogues to engage interested stakeholders in a constructive learning and
discussion on the options available for the development of future REDD financial
mechanisms. Through the dialogue, the participants will understand the various options
for REDD financial mechanisms, identify the true fracture lines among stakeholders over the
different REDD financial schemes, and begin to develop consensus based solutions to address the
challenges to successful implementation. The first dialogue was held in New York City and
it will be co-hosted by the UNFF Secretariat.
